And it's a .... What??

I have been sure this little miracle was a girl. Just positive. I never even doubted it for a minute.
Then we found out the gender.

Our little miracle is a BOY!!! What??? Shocked.

I feel guilty saying this, because I really was gender neutral.... But if given a magic wand and the ability to have chosen the gender....

I would have chosen a boy. I would have been equally happy with either gender, but I am so thrilled to have another special little mama's boy. A baby boy. Now there is so much knitting to do!! I spent a good long time looking at boy patterns. I printed about twenty.

Then I took a small detour to knit this boy a snuggly blanket.

I am a good mom, if you ignore the fact that I bought this yarn with promises of the blanket two years ago.

Now I am doing some serious knitting on a cabled baby cardi.

It is one that I knit for a very special little boy that my friend helped into this world almost a year ago. He was a miracle as well. I love this pattern, and never thought I would have the chance to knit it for my own little boy someday. I will totally link it. Sometime. Now is not that time.

And I have been spinning. I broke out the wheel to spin some gosh awful wool that s friend got in Estonia. It is terrible stuff, and is going to look and feel horrible... But this friend is so very worth it.

About Me

I am the domestic goddess here in my universe to the perfect man (yes, they do exist), 5 children, and the rest of the farm. I spend my days enjoying tasks such as changing and/or wiping bums, noses, and mouths. I cook, clean (really that is an out and out lie) and play ref to the domestic WWF. I do not get paid vacation, yet dread retirement. I hope to let other domestic Goddesses know that they are not alone, and there is someone out there that is less perfect than they. So sit back and let me make you feel good about yourself.
